A study found that the average stopping distance of a school bus traveling 50 mph was 264 feet. a group of automotive engineers

decided to conduct a study of its school buses and found that for 40 buses, the average stopping distance of buses traveling 50 mph was 262.3 feet. the standard deviation of the population was 3.0 feet. test the claim that the average stopping distance of this company's buses is actually less than 264 feet. perform an appropriate hypothesis test. be sure to clearly define your parameter, check your conditions, and list all four steps of the test.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a  study found that the average stopping distance of a school bus traveling 50 mph was 264 feet.

Sample taken showed the following results

n=40\\\bar x =262.3 feet\\Std dev = \sigma= 3 ft

Since population std deviation is known and sample size is large, z test can be used.

H_0: \bar x=264\\H_a: \bar x

(Left tailed test)

Mean difference = 264-262.3 = 1.7

Std error = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } \\=\frac{3}{\sqrt{40} } \\=0.474

Z = test statistic = mean diff/std error

= \frac{1.7}{0.474} \\=3.584

p value = 0.00017

Since p < alpha our 0.05 we reject null hypothesis

There is evidence to show that mean is less than 264 feet

(Assumptions:

Sample are randomly drawn

Sample represents the population

Convert 2x - 3y + 1 = 0 to slope-intercept form
Dafna11 [192]
Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b. our goal is to get y by itself on one side of the equation.

2x-3y+1=0
2x+1=3y
3y=2x+1
y=(2/3)x+1/3

That is the same function but in slope-intercept form.

Use the following diagram to answer question 4 and 5
baherus [9]

Answer:

3x-13+2x+4=116( the sum of two interior angle is epual to the sum of exterior angle )

5x =116-9

5x=107

x=21.4 degree

then

angle a= 3*21.4-13

a=51.2degree

angle b=2*21.4+2

b =44.8degree

Answer:

slope=2

Step-by-step explanation:

subrtract -4-(-4) the two negatives make it a + so that becomes 8 and thats for the top one the bottom is 6-2 which is 4 then divide 8 by 4 to find the slope which is 2.

3/5 + 4/15 = in simply
maksim [4K]
You have to get a common denominator so

3 x 3 = 9
5 x 3 = 15

So now we have 9/15 + 4/15 which is 13/15.

The answer is 13/15
